  • Pillar or Votive Wax
    Heinz CD-8 Pre-tabbed wicks
    Rubber Mold Wick Pin
    Wick Clip
    Sugar Cone Star Mold
    Sugar Cone Hearts & Stars Tarts Mold
    Scent
    Acrylic Paint - Red, White and Blue
    Paint Brushes
    Silver Glitter Glue

Heat wax to 200 degrees and add scent of your choice. Center the wick pin in the bottom of the mold and place a wick clip at the top to hold the pin in place. Pour wax into your molds. Step 2 Heat your wax and re-pour to fill the void if your wax formed a void around the wick pin. Remove the candle from the mold once the wax has completely cooled. Remove the wick pin and insert a pre-tabbed wick. Step 3 Paint over your candle with white paint if the wax is a natural color. Depending on what wax you use, a couple of layers of paint may be needed to get a bright white color. If the candle is bright white, skip this step. Let the paint dry and paint the stars red and blue. Step 4 When paint is dry, cover the entire candle with silver glitter glue to give it sparkle! Enjoy the holidays.
